Brydon's quest was simple. Borrow the fabled Gauntlet of Ven-Kerrick, bring it home to prove his worth, marry the princess, and ascend the throne.

He had planned for the dangerous terrain and Redolian assassins, but he did not count on slavers and werewolves. He did not expect the Gauntlet to be missing, nor to find the Kerrick royal family murdered, and he definitely did not anticipate the distractions of a sultry thief and a rescued slave girl.

Luckily, his worst enemy was there to help him out.

OMFG, I can't believe it's FINISHED!!!  Well, Book One, at any rate.  BWAHAHAHA!  Sorry it took so long to post this last chapter; it actually ended on a MAJOR cliffhanger before.  At least it has a bit of closure now.  *grin*  I'll most likely finish the trilogy one day.  The second book is done, I just haven't edited a SINGLE WORD of it, so yeah... it's a mess.  And I'm about a third of the way through writing Book Three.

SO many more things to come.  More magical objects, a character death, the return of Sellaris, political machinations...  I love Book Two.  So, shall I keep going?

This is a very short chapter, but hopefully the action makes up for it...

Hi all,

Thanks so much for following The Gauntlet Throne religiously! In order to avoid burnout, and enjoy our families, we've decided to take a break from posting a chapter this week. But don't worry - we'll be back with another chapter next week.

Best,
